    Morning all. Bright sunshine here this morning, still a chilly breeze but I don't mind that.

    Going to walk into town this morning, got a check-up at the dentist. It's about half an hour's walk each way, so should help to keep me in shape. :)

    Will probably do a bit more in the garden later, hope to finish off the edging today.

    Hope everyone is well, have a good day.

      Good Morning,

      It's overcast here, but looks like it might brighten up :dbgrtmb:. We had a bit of rain over night, that made a change :whistle:

      There's plenty of birds in he garden this morning, they are all having breakfast on the feeders:). The geese are slowly returning, we had two fly over this morning :).

      A few months ago the street lights in the village were changed to LED lights, unfortunately they moved our light a couple of meters along the road, now the front door is incomplete darkness, today's job is to speak to an Electrician to have a new light put up in the storm porch, I can't really grumble we've had free front door lighting for 13 years! :snorky:

      I hope everyone's on the mend, enjoy your day :grphg:

          Good morning everyone
          I'm off to a breakfast meeting. Will get takeaway for oh and granddaughter and will be back with it before they get out of bed :)
          It's chilly, foggy, windy and just plain miserable but I have lots of indoor work to do so the day won't go to waste!
          Have a safe day please!

            Good afternoon WW'ers

            Bitter North Easterly out there today and not much sunshine to warm it either.

            @shiney - hope your appointment brings some relief for you
            @moyra - hope your delivery was on time; nothing worse than waiting for a delivery in my book
            @Trunky - hope the dentist went well
            @wiseowl - I rarely listen to the budget as it unfolds, I wait for a synopsis. Hope you enjoyed your constitutional
            @Beckie76 - gosh you are clever! I can't get Mr "M" to try new vegetables let alone live mealworms; Kev certainly is brave :heehee:
            @CanadianLori - what a lovely Grambo you are ... that's almost breakfast in bed! No wait, that *is*!! I'll be on the next flight :whistle:

            Totally lacking inspiration for tea tonight (I just know it won't be live mealworms) and already the egg situation is at saturation point :redface: No doubt inspiration will strike me soon enough, but I do find after all the years of having to decide what to put on the plate that I get quite weary of it all.

            Healing vibes for those who need them and miles of smiles for all

                    Morning all. Frost again here this morning, but the sun is already up and it looks like being a lovely day. :SUNsmile:

                    Got the all clear from the dentist yesterday, the Trunky gnashers are safe for another six months. :biggrin:

                    Didn't get round to finishing the edging yesterday, I kept getting sidetracked by other things. Going to have a go at it today, once the frost has lifted.

                    Hope everyone is well, enjoy your day. :)

                          Good morning & Happy St Patrick's day to you all,

                          It was very foggy here first thing, it's beginning to lift now, fingers crossed it will turn into a lovely bright day :fingers crossed:

                          Yesterday I bumped into a friends dad, I'd sent my friend a card a few weeks ago & as ever I'd used my fountain pen to write in the card, he said how lovely it was that I still used an ink pen, I confessed that it was the same ink pen I'd used at middle school when I was 11 years old! I hadn't realised it was such a dying trend to use a fountain pen! :scratch:

                          The hens are tapping their beaks on the cat flap :snork: cheeky little beggars! :heehee:

                          Enjoy your day everyone :grphg:

                            Good day all,
                            I'm off to a seminar to learn about the latest products from Sunbrella. Love seeing new collections and the bright colours - gets me all excited about getting outdoors again... :yes:

                            Granddaughter was staying until tonight but now wants to stay until tomorrow night, so that shall be so. She's a delightful girl and no trouble at all. Amazes me the amount of fruit these kids can eat :scratch: but she got me to try some new types - a pomelo we tried was quite delicious. May buy some more :)

                            Have a safe day everyone!

                              Good Evening all :)

                              Bit dark in here at this time of night ... didn't anyone think to put a light on? :scratch: Oh never mind, I've lit some scented candles instead ...

                              ... had an "out" day today after all the usually "must do" morning rush routine. Went to craft club for the morning, which was a real hoot. One of the ladies there today also runs the annual Jumble Sale and began to regale the group about the time someone donated a particularly "hideous" housecoat. She was in full flow about how awful it was, the colour, the material, the style .... until I turned, looked her in the eye and said:
                              "I donated that".
                              The whole room went deathly quiet :huh: you could have heard a pin drop :whistle:

                              Managed to keep a straight face for a whole five (long) seconds while watching to see the penny drop; when it did, she retorted: "You didn't live here then!" :psnp: :heehee:

                              Dashed home from there, totally inspired with our makings, and decided Mr "M" would have permission to play Chauffeur and Chief Bag Carrier for the afternoon while I went out hunting (for supplies). As it turned out it wasn't a particularly productive trip, but it was fun and we did have something to eat out (Mr "M"'s reward really :pathd: ).

                              Wishing you all a lovely evening; healing vibes for all who need them and miles of smiles for all xxMxx

                              @Trunky - good news on your gnashers :thumbsup:
                              @CanadianLori - enjoy your Sunbrella seminar :spinning: and the extra night at playing Grambo
